got your files. One question: why did you replace willoughby with hawkins? why not just add hawkins?

Second question: Wouldn't it make more sense to make Drake a dormant leader? Let's say I play England and don't want to mess with Spain, then I decline the services of Drake, and all those CB events will sleep?

1. I felt that Willoughby was not essential, as the only major voyage of Willoughby was with Chancellor on the northern passage to Muscowy. Hence, just one (Chancellor) would do. Besides, I feel that England has too many early explorers which make it too easy to colonize early (part of the rationale for removing S. Cabot as well). Getting rid of Willoughby doesn't make that much of a difference, but it is easy to justify getting rid of him as long as Chancellor is still in the game.

2. The idea is that if you go with Drake as a privateer, he appears as an admiral in 1586. If you decide not to use Drake as a privateer, you don't get the three privateering events, but you do get Drake as an explorer (S. Cabot's ID being used for the extra Drake). It's a tradeoff between privateering income + an additional explorer. Both Drakes are dormant at the start, & only the relevant one is activated by the choice in the Drake's Privateering event.
 
This is not a bug thing, but just a question. I am sorry if I trouble some souls with it :)

Should I download this mod? I don't have it, and it seems quite interesting, but should I wait for a non beta version or jump on this one?
 
Licou - this version works well for almost everybody (it seems). However, a new version will be out in a couple of days with alot of additions, modifications, and revisions (in no particular order). So you might want to hold off for that.

Crook;

Did the EEP Americas stuff come through OK?

A note on balance with those: the Americas and Spain events are pretty well tested. Naturally, Spain ends up with a substantial advantage (especially since some of the events result in American provinces and nations being diploannexed rather than conquered, leading to lower BB).

The Manhattan events haven't been so thoroughly tested. It's not clear whether England will consistently take Manhattan if the Dutch succeed in buying or conquering it. Event 21044 (currently commented out) will simply hand the province over to England. Crass, but effective.

The USA events aren't particularly massive in their effects, so there shouldn't be any problem there.
 
crook -
I've sent you some emergancy events i did...emergancy because i noticed Afghanistan file i did accidentally got written over and i replaced all my ids so mine are all now (for oringinal events, not modified ones) 200000+.

Dogface - true, we were just going with convention. Would you be happy if I changed it to Holy Wisdom? Hagia Sophia?

I'd prefer something along those lines, although I'd be happiest with either using Greek (not possible) or "Aya Sofia", since "gamma" has probably been "soft" in actual Greek pronunciation since the 1100s, at the very least. But that would only make sense to people who would actually know something about the Greek used in the Empire during the Middle Ages.
